THE CONSUMER COUNCIL'S CAR Sus,—Leslie Adrian in his column of

your edition of January 17 refers to the purchase of a car by the Consumer Council. He implies that we bought the car on the strength of a recommendation in Which? In fact, we took the decision on the kind of car to buy before the report on that particular model had been published in Which?

I should like to add that although it is true that we have had trouble with the car, it has been repaired by the dealer under the terms of the guarantee and seems now to be in good order.
